The bold thing I have decided to do,
Will be done for the good of all of Rome.
No one man shall gain more than another
And they all shall benefit equally.
I am doing this selflessly for Rome
And know the possible consequences.
I am leader of the conspirators
And though we are equal, they would follow me,
To no less than the ends of the earth and time.
Caesar was infected with corruption
So toe must be amputated from foot.
The purged body will be forever clean
And so Rome will remain a republic.
As a Brutus, I must take some action,
And the only I see appropriate,
Is the assassination of Caesar.
Rash as it may seem tis necessary.
Rome cannot fall to one man in my day.
I honor the spirits of ancestors
In freeing all descendents from bondage.
Rather I try and fail then all just fail.
I would give more than my life for my country
If only I had more than that to give.
Nevertheless I do what all Rome should,
So true roman I may be remembered.

The men who believe I can be changed by
Their motive of flattery are destined
To a fatal end. I am without change;
Such humanistic tendencies do not
Phase me. Many Romans may see me as
Prideful or arrogant, and this as a
Lethal weakness. My pride however is
Just in that the man I am deserves the
Conceited manner I put forth.
For Caesar was not born as any common man.
He was sent to deliver Roma from
Captivity and free the citizens
With his power. I speak what I do know
In that I am a hope for the people
Of this nation. I am tested in vain
For truly acknowledgments of my many
Strengths and virtues do not touch my spirit
Or my mind. I am moved only by my
Own judgment and without this Rome would perish.
To all predestined enemies of myself
I do warn with great sincerity,
I am not your status of ruler and
Therefore I cannot be beaten. When I
Do perish it will be the destiny
Of the stars, and of no human man’s doing.
